    Default Motif/B & W Bridge

    Attached Images Attached Images
     
    I have been inspired by all of Gus's architectural wide angle shots and thought I would try one. The wide angle lens usually sits in the bag but I'm starting to like it. This is the bridge just down the street. Had a nice walk even though it started to............rain.............:D

    We had so many planes lately that I thought this was a stealth fighter when it first opened up :)

    Excellent composition Did you think of including a car moving through? A blur would have been nice !!! Love it !!1

    Very well composed and executed Jackie. The lines are simple and clean. I like the perspective. Suggestion: What would this look like at night with the cars passing by...:confused::D:):cool: I think it would look cool with streaks of tail lights going through the tunnel...:cool:

    I think night photography will be another assignment. I did get ones with cars, but need an even lower shutter speed:) they weren't very blurred at 1/80 s ( to me anyways)

    Excellent angle on this one Jackie. What I like the most is that's a B&W capture.
    I'm with you, need to start using the wide angle more.

    Like the composition very much.
    I had the same reaction when I started using the wa more; it opened up a whole new way of seeing.
    Cheers

    Great job Jackie. The rail draws me right into the picture. Love it in B&W. I was wondering if you blocked off the cars. Night shot would be awesome. Congrats....
